* DCAL's Learning Community for Future Faculty - Practice makes perfect!
*
(Note we will start at 12:15 in June.) Practice makes perfect! For this
month’s LCFF, we will be discussing the dreaded chalk/research talks
used at job interviews. To better prepare ourselves, we will practice
how to teach our research to different people in forms of short, mock
chalk talks. Come practice and polish your pitches for job talks, chalk
talks, networking events, or family gatherings.
Come prepared with a short pitch to explain your current research to the
group (3-5 min)—and challenge yourself to use the whiteboard instead of
slides!
Please look at the following links to prepare your mock talks:

In order to cultivate a community focused on teaching and learning
amongst graduate students and postdocs, DCAL has established a Learning
Community for Future Faculty (LCFF). The focus of this group is to share
the rewards and challenges of college teaching, while digging a bit
deeper into best practices and techniques for teaching. The LCFF meets
monthly on the 2nd Monday of the month. Let us know if you'd like to
facilitate!

* Visit with GRAD Alum working internationally *
Come enjoy lunch and discussion with GRAD Alum, Marcella Lucas on her
international career.
Dr Marcella Lucas is an innovation strategy consultant specializing in
establishing and growing innovative companies globally. She obtained her
BSc Biochemistry from the University of Bath (UK) and her PhD in
Experimental and Molecular Medicine (Neuroscience) from Dartmouth. She
worked as a strategy consultant in the pharmaceutical and medical
devices space in Boston before joining Malaysia Blue Ocean Strategy
Institute in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2014.
At Malaysia Blue Ocean Strategy Institute, Dr. Lucas developed
innovative national-level strategies for the Malaysian government, its
top leadership and key private sector players to foster social and
economic development. Dr. Lucas is now applying Blue Ocean Strategy
concepts to release untapped talent and energy in organizations and
individuals and she is working with LeadWomen to design workshops,
programmes and conferences with the aim of developing innovative women
leaders in the new economy across ASEAN and East Africa. Concurrently Dr
Lucas is setting up a Kenya-based nano-finance platform in Malaysia
which will enable the bottom-40 population to access loans and capital
to support their entrepreneurial enterprises.

Alumni Email Transition
In 2011, Dartmouth decided to offer matriculated Dartmouth students an
e-mail address for life. This means that the address they get when they
matriculate at Dartmouth will be theirs to use for the rest of their
life. Since the vast majority of alumni already forward their Dartmouth
e-mail to free commercial e-mail services that better meet their needs –
and are much better at blocking spam and other unwanted messages -
Dartmouth made the decision to transition all alum.dartmouth.org
accounts to this dartmouth.edu "e-mail address for life" service as well.
By the end of 2013, Dartmouth will retire the College-administered
e-mail service used by some alumni (BlitzMail) and instead offer
Dartmouth.edu addresses to all alumni.
It is important to note that the "e-mail address for life" service is an
account with an e-mail address, but does NOT have a mailbox attached to
it. Dartmouth will provide you with the tools to forward your Dartmouth.edu
address to any other e-mail account you own, such as gmail or hotmail.
This means that you can give out your Dartmouth.edu address when you
start as a student and know that this address will always be yours – not
just for the time you are in Hanover.
To help you manage this change, the Alumni Help Desk (603) 646-3202,
will provide alumni with information (see below) on how to obtain, setup,
and configure free e-mail accounts that are offered by Microsoft or
Google. They will also assist with configuring those accounts to allow
you to send e-mail from your new Dartmouth.edu address. This will allow
you to receive and send mail from a Microsoft or Google account but
using a Dartmouth.edu address.
For graduating students: your e-mail address will stay the same but
approximately 60 days after commencement your mailbox will be removed.
Prior to this time, your dartmouth.edu address should be forwarded to a
non-Dartmouth account. Information will be sent to you during the spring
term regarding this transition, giving you time to migrate any messages
or contacts to another non-Dartmouth account.
8 Steps to a Successful E-mail Transition:
Know your NetID: When you log in you will be prompted for your NetID. If
you can't remember what it is, you can find it at http://login.dartmouth.edu.
Click the Lookup your NetID link on that page. In the window that
appears, type your first and last name. Do not press Enter. If more than
one account is displayed, click on the line with your complete name.
Your NetID will appear.
Set Forwarding on Your Account: Log into Dartmouth's Directory Manager
system (dartdm.dartmouth.edu) and set the forwarding on your account to
another non-Dartmouth e-mail address that you own.
Migrate Any Messages You Want Retained: If you have used BlitzMail in
the past, log into your alum.dartmouth.org account and review any
messages there. If there are any you want to keep, forward them to your
non-Dartmouth account.
Migrate Any Addresses You Want Retained: If you have used BlitzMail in
the past, log into your alum.dartmouth.org account and review the
personal mailing lists you have there. Set up these same mailing lists
in your non-Dartmouth account and test those lists to ensure you
transferred the addresses correctly.
Remove BlitzMail from any Computers Your Own: Once your transition date
arrives, remove the BlitzMail application from any computer you own so
that you don't accidently log back into your alum.dartmouth.org account
and wonder where all your new mail is.
Watch for e-mail updates for specific information informing you of your
transition date. We will be sending you more detailed e-mails, including
the date on which your account will transition. After this date, if you
have not set forwarding on your account, e-mail sent to your alum.dartmouth.org
account will be returned to the sender as undeliverable.
Have a mobile device (smartphone, iPad, etc.)? Delete your alum.dartmouth.org
and/or Dartmouth.edu account from this device before your transition
date.
Update your contact information with your new Dartmouth.edu address. If
you have your alum.dartmouth.org e-mail address on any business cards,
resumes, etc. update those places to reflect your new Dartmouth.edu
address.
